Yamaha Other description

north ave at farwell ave 920cc v-twin 5 gear. Plenty of power. Runs strong but carbs need cleaning/tuning. Has ran strong ever since I got it from the 1st owner back in early 2012, and for that, I now respect the Yamaha brand. CLEAR TITLE. 31k miles.doesnt leak oil or differential fluidclutch still ok. 2-1 aftermarket exhaust (straightpiped now but have the baffle if you want)This bike roars! definately has that tough v-twin sound that turns heads :)The bad;-Needs brakework on both ends. The back just needs a return spring for the drum. could use a new disc up front. It can still be driven around though, just have to be careful.-lost the original start button connection last season so i made my own connection to the starter with a 20 amp momentary switch. This works but doesnt last forever. autozone doesnt carry bigger than 20 amp momentaries so need to get a 30 amp momentary from a hardware store.High and low beams work, brakelight works. needs connection for tailight and blinkers$550 Firm, too much motor too sell for lessSerious calls or texts

Mystic Mac's 2014 MotoGP predictions

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

There is no real off season in Moto GP.  Although we complain about being starved of racing, for those at the sharp end, in little more than two months they have new bikes to assemble, team staff to put in place and sponsors to nail down that will pay for it all.  This time frame is also tight for riders, as it seems more every year go straight under the surgeon’s knife after the last round and spend the short winter recuperating for the season ahead. The 2014 Moto GP championship looks like a cracker as apart from the ten full factory riders we now have at least eight non factory riders with properly competitive machinery.  We also have five Brits on the grid, two with podium potential.  Whatever happens though (providing you have BT Sport) you can just sit back and enjoy watching the incredible Marc Marquez do things that shouldn’t be possible. Speaking of whom, I didn’t believe a Rossi replacement would come this soon.  And when I say replacement, I mean a rider that is the full package.  Although in some ways quite different to Vale, he’s an equally phenomenal talent plus a very likeable character that appeals to the masses and although respectful to his rivals off track, deadly competitive in the heat of battle.  Being young and good looking he’s obviously a dream for sponsors and the sport in general.  Marquez has evolved in his own way but thankfully into a perfect replacement for our sport when the VR steps down.
